Just installed my P8P67 PRO last night and noted that the current BIOS is 1502.

I was only able to play around with it for about 20 minutes, but everything seems to be functioning as normal... no dual-POST, etc.

So I'm wondering, should I update the BIOS to 17xx anyway since it has a pretty significant change log?

Thanks in advance!

Unless you're like me and need the "latest and greatest", I wouldn't flash unless:

a) Having a BIOS related problem.
b) See something in the changelog that you feel would improve your computing experience.

I see you have an SSD, which in my opinion has received a nice throughput increase in the 17xx bios versions. (Granted, this is for the deluxe, so I do not know if the Evo would benefit from this as well.)

@Krazykiddo: Definitely double check those hot plug states as The Mac suggested. It can make a difference.

Can you please click on the "User CP" button at the top of your screen and then enter in your system specs so we know what we're dealing with? It makes it much easier to troubleshoot that way.

Offhand, I would suggest:
A) Unplugging your PSU from the wall and resetting your CMOS by either removing the battery, moving the jumper, or if your motherboard has a clear CMOS button - holding that down for 5 seconds.

B) Removing all but one stick of RAM and trying again. (If the MemOK button is flashing, hold it down and allow the motherboard to reboot with the settings it sees as compatible.)

C) Make sure your 4/8 pin ATX cable is plugged in at the top of the motherboard. Usually if you forget this, it won't boot - but I have seen a few cases where it did, just not for very long.

D) Make sure all of your connections are nice and secure. If you have a loose power connection to your HDD, it could be powered up as the system starts, but wiggle loose once it spins up as the BIOS tries to read it. This could cause the BIOS to freeze up as well.
